A Mug Rug for Carson

There has been a lot of home decorating give-and-take in our efforts to spruce up our living room. Andy let me replace his beloved brown curtains with sunny yellow ones, and recently, he brought home this treasure.

What I want to know is how did this gem end up in the clearance section of our grocery store? And I can’t imagine why these dudes haven’t been popping up all over the hot home decor blogs. What a statement piece!!

…. Or, you know, not.

Trends be darned. We are living the good life now, with Mr. Carson always there for us when we need him – to hold a cup of coffee, an iPhone, or a bottle.

This hardworking chap has proved himself in need of a little handmade pampering. Pampering in the form of a mug rug for his tray, made with some of my beloved Flea Market Fancy, and hand quilted with embroidery floss. The random quilting design fit my mood at the time.
